Yes, you do in fact need to reset even with the original example,
as otherwise the last output would be repeated when instr 1 is not
active. However, in general, you should both add and reset.

That is because instr 1 is turned off before you could get more
reverberation. That is why there is a separate instrument that is
always on.
